AuthorTopic: Adding Items in IceWM menu (Read 2703 times)

When I sign in as root, the menu has a much larger list of items, including things like - a) "internet", which comprise firefox, pidgin, wicd, etc.b) "multimedia", which has mplayer, xine, etc.and a whole lot of other categories.

However, when I sign in as user, all these options seem to vanish. I only get multimedia and system.

Also, when I install new software (such as vlc), how do I add it into the menu?

Somehow the initial menu auto-generation did not run. Look at the menu, under System, find an "Update menu" entry. If it is not there, navigate to ~/.icewm and execute "update-icewm-menu.sh". After adding new programs, run it again to update menu.
